Excerpt from The Religious Objection to TetotalismThe religious objection against Temperance Societies which is the subject of the following paper, is one which has spread from mouth to mouth among profes sors of the gospel, far and wide all over England, and has caused vast multitudes of serious persons to oppose or (which amounts to the same thing) to hold back from the temperance cause. I myself have encountered the very same objection among religious professors at al most every turn. Now, that the dissipated, the thoughtless, and the worldly, and those who live only for their own personal indulgence, should oppose the efforts now making against one of the greatest strong holds of Satan, and one of the worst enemies of Christ's kingdom, is no more than what we might be prepared to expect. But that any who profess to love the Lord Jesus Christ in sincerity, should oppose the temperance cause, and should even plead their love of the gospel as a reason for their opposition, is a melancholy proof of the deceivableness of the human heart, and of the un accountable delusions to which it is continually exposed.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
